Chapter 27 Chasing and Fleeing

puff--

The crossbow bolt that flew out of the darkness penetrated the throat of a guard without any hindrance.

The sharp sharpness came out from the back of the guard's neck, a cold light flashed slightly, and blood splattered on the wall.

The guard's eyes widened, as if he had never expected death to come so suddenly.

"Ho ho ho-"

He still wanted to say something, but the trachea was filled with blood, and he could only make an inexplicable sound. He stretched out his hand to pull out the crossbow bolt stuck in his neck, but in the end he lost all his strength before touching the crossbow bolt.

thump--

The corpse's knees went weak and fell to the ground.

And Viserys was standing not far from the guard. Because of the angle of view, his position could not be directly seen from that corner.

However, in fact, he was very close to the killed guard, and he was even talking about something just now, and the guard still had a smile on his face.

But in an instant, hot blood splashed onto the silver-haired boy's clean little face.

It all happened so quickly and unexpectedly that neither Viserys nor the other guard could react, but just stood there stupidly, as if stunned.

However, the only remaining bodyguard was quicker than Viserys.

He seemed to vaguely see a pair of eyes with cruel light from the darkness.

"Enemy attack!"

Then the guard suddenly pulled out his long sword from his waist, pulled Viserys who had just reacted with one hand, raised his hand and wiped the blood on his face and stepped back.

"Your Highness, run away!"

The young guard stood in front of Viserys to break up the little king, and the silver-haired boy with blood on his face did not hesitate or refuse.

Turn around and run.

Boom——

And in the dark, the taut bowstring burst out again.

Another bolt shot out of the darkness, this time targeting Viserys who had finally appeared in his field of vision.

Unfortunately, Viserys ran very fast, this crossbow shot crookedly, and the difficulty of moving the target was much higher than that of the fixed target.

The crossbow bolt took away a strand of silver-gold hair from the boy's hair, and then pinned it to the wall.

bang——

The rubble and dust splashed, and the tail of the crossbow arrow was still shaking slightly, showing how powerful the arrow was.

"so close!"

Viserys felt a slight chill in his ears at first, followed by a burning pain.

However, at this moment, Viserys had no time to care about the pain on his face, his heart was beating faster, and his heart was extremely frightened.

He just wanted to run away quickly.

…

"Damn!"

"Fuck it!"

And in the darkness not far away.

The members of the mercenary group who attacked with the crossbow saw that the second arrow failed, and the boy from Targaryen escaped, his face slightly gloomy.

However, what was even worse was that the shouting of the guard seemed to alarm the guards of the entire Shigu Tower.

They are the first to be exposed here and may even affect the plan of the leader on the other side and several other brothers to kill Queen Layla.

"Chase!"

And the big man named Langdon, who was carrying a battle axe, also had a gloomy expression, and the red and black oil paint looked rather grim.

Then he suddenly stood up from the darkness and strode in the direction of Viserys to chase after him.

The entire group of seven people who carried out this commission are all good players in the group. After all, this commission is very important, and the people with whom it must be brought must be small and skilled.

Otherwise, if they were discovered by the Dragonstone Island fleet, they would have to jump into the sea to feed the fish even if they pulled all their mercenary group over at sea.

After entering the Dragonstone Castle, the group of seven people divided into two groups. Three people came to kill Viserys along the way, and the leader on the other side led the remaining three people to attack Queen Layla, who was more defensive.

They thought it was more than enough to send three people to kill a child, mainly to deal with the guards of Prince Targaryen.

Langdon strode after Viserys, but the loyal Dragonstone guard would not let them go so easily.

"stop!"

The guards held a shield in one hand and a long sword in the other, blocking their way in the corridor.

Although the voice was loud and loud, a slight tremor could still be heard.

"Who are you!"

However, he still didn't turn his head and fled, he was trying to buy Viserys time to escape.

Dragonstone was once Rhaegar Targaryen's fiefdom, so these guards were all subordinates who had followed Prince Rhaegar and were loyal to the Targaryen family.

Viserys didn't know how his near-perfect brother had such an affinity that everyone who had ever met him was full of praise for him.

But in his memory, his eldest brother is indeed very talented and handsome.

He remembered that his brother took the boy to the royal forest for an outing, but he was attacked by an adult wild boar. Prince Rhaegar held Viserys and used only one hand and a sword to bring down the head dexterously and gracefully. wild boar.

But Rhaegar did not pursue and kill it, but let the wounded boar escape.

In short, the deceased prince became synonymous with perfection.

But now the loyal guards of Dragonstone did not flee, but bravely greeted him, delaying the time for Viserys to escape.

clang--

The guards, who had undergone rigorous training and skillful skills, fought head-to-head with the usual mercenaries who licked blood, and the three besieged him in the narrow corridor alone.

clang clang-

The guard's long sword blocked the attack of the other two, and in the darkness, sparks erupted from the collision of gold and iron.

However, a battle axe came down immediately, and in a hurry, the Targaryen soldiers could only raise the round shield in their left hand to resist.

next second.

bang——

Sawdust was flying, and the big man among the mercenaries, holding a battle axe, slashed fiercely on the round shield held by the guard's left hand.

However, the guards on Longshi Island did not expect that the other party's strength was so strong, and his face suddenly changed greatly.

And his body didn't stand firm and staggered slightly, almost falling to the ground.

However, the mercenaries who live a life of licking blood on weekdays will naturally not show mercy.

The big man once again took the axe in his hands and directly took the head of the guard, without even making a scream.

puff--

The head of the guard was chopped off and rolled to the ground, and the blood spurted out like he didn't need money.

The headless corpse fell weakly against the wall and collapsed.

At this moment, Viserys had already fled to the spiral staircase on the third floor of the Stone Drum Tower.

He gasped heavily, and just turned his head to see this scene.

The brave guard used his life to delay him enough time, but he was killed by the ferocious enemy in three moves.

Viserys watched as the enemy strode toward him again, only to feel a slight tingling in his scalp.

"Damn."

The silver-haired boy gritted his teeth slightly, then turned his head again and ran away.
